Forever is Tomorrow

 
 
My life has changed so quickly    
in such a Little time  
trapped inside ideas    
and a life  
that wasn't mine.  
   
As I sit to write this poem    
a window breeze    
creeps in    
only then  
do I feel    
the cold from deep within..  
   
This blanket    
will not warm me    
for the chill  
is in my heart  
It started on  
that very day    
When life  
just fell apart..  
   
Forever is tomorrow  
but we're stuck    
inside today  
will we ever    
get the chance    
to feel just    
how we say..  
   
I've carried  
all this pain inside  
the ach I feel  
makes sprits die  
I never got to say  
goodbye.  
   
I knew about the madness    
that had become my life  
When I told you    
my forever    
I meant to be your wife.  
 
I sit with indecision  
As I think about what's next  
will I run into you  
at the store  
soon as I catch my breath?  
 
Forever is tomorrow  
but we're stuck    
inside today  
will we ever    
get the chance    
to feel just    
how we say..  
   
To think
that I may never feel    
the concept
of your heart  
Has caught me
in a world of pain  
with you    
I cannot part.  
   
I'm looking
for the courage    
to close my eyes
and Pray..    
For inside of that    
still moment    
Is where I have to    
Stay.  
   
For all that I    
have lost    
I pray to    
God for help    
I do not know    
what I'm to do  
with all these    
cards I'm dealt.  
   
Forever is tomorrow  
but we're stuck    
inside today  
will we ever    
get the chance    
to feel just    
how we say..  
   
As I listen for His answer    
He tell me    
"Say goodbye"  
for the moment that I long for
had only made me cry.  
   
Even in those moments    
I thought we'd never part.  
Forever you will hold the place    
that's dark inside my heart.  
   
Trapped    
inside a bottle    
Is there some of us    
will stay    
never knowing    
what the future holds    
and why    
we did not pray.
